After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress (Sylvia and Cyril)

Chapter 106 Like a Joke

Sylvia never spoke to Cyril from beginning to end, even as the birthday party drew to a close. Everyone gradually dispersed, leaving Cyril silent and observant, his gaze fixed on Sylvia as she mingled and conversed with the other guests. He could never have imagined a day when her status would shift so dramatically. He had never genuinely looked at Sylvia, engaged in real conversation, let alone nurtured a connection with her. He had simply felt a duty to remain in their marriage, to be responsible, even if it meant staying together without love for the rest of his life.

Yet, now as he watched her, he realized his feelings had evolved. Divorce had brought into sharp relief Sylvia’s true character; she was vivacious like the sun itself. Her talent had steered the company to greater heights–she was capable and impressive, but he had never truly seen her that way. She had been within his reach once, yet there was no effort to treasure her. As the gap between them widened, only when it became too great did he realize the extent of his grievous mistakes.

Regret was pointless now. They were no longer connected, and even if Cyril wanted to make amends, Sylvia would unlikely grant him another chance. A sense of desolation took hold of him as he rose and began to head out. But he had barely taken a few steps before alarmed screams from the backyard reached his ears–screams that sounded strikingly like Bonnie

and Katrina.

His heart lurched, and he hurried towards the commotion.

After only a couple of steps, Jonathan intercepted him, intent on speaking to Sylvia but finding no opportune moment. Upon seeing Cyril, Jonathan grabbed his arm and they raced

forward.

“Cyril, something’s happened! Your sister and Katrina are going at it. They’ve created a huge scene outside–there are a lot of spectators, and Bark is there too.”

Such a debacle on the host’s property was more than just an embarrassment.

Upon arrival, Cyril realized this situation couldn’t be chalked up to just causing a scene- Bonnie and Katrina were physically fighting, pulling hair and kicking at each other. The sight brought on a headache he didn’t need, and Jonathan was beside himself with worry.

“I was about to pull them apart when they started to fight back fiercely. I got kicked out of the fray– you can even see their footprints on my shirt,” he said. “What should we do, Cyril? If this keeps up, we’ll be the laughingstock of the year, not to mention your divorce from Sylvia–Ivan family’s already displeased. You saw how they looked at us today: like we’re unworthy. If we don’t settle this now, none of us will escape unscathed tonight.”

Jonathan was dead serious. Cyril understood the gravity of the situation, hence the deep frown as he pondered over a solution. But resolving such a mess was not going to be easy.

“What on earth is going on? Why would they pick a fight like this out of the blue? And Katrina–she shouldn’t have been able to get in here,” Cyril muttered, confusion lacing his

tone.

Jonathan hesitated at Cyril’s questions, “Weren’t you the one who brought Katrina over? She told me you invited her, so I just brought her in. I had no idea they’d end up causing such a scene.”

“When have I ever brought Katrina to this kind of event? Don’t you know better?” Cyril massaged his temples in frustration. It was clear to him that bringing her was a bad idea from the start, but now that she was here amidst this turmoil, there was little else to do but try to handle the situation swiftly.

Jonathan realized his mistake too late. Sylvia’s birthday party was hardly the place for a scene like this, given her standing with the Ivans. The two women obviously didn’t get along, and Cyril wouldn’t be foolish enough to invite such trouble–bringing Bonnie was embarrassing enough without adding Katrina to the mix.

Feeling like the sword of Damocles was dangling over his head, Jonathan dreaded the fallout from his error. “What should I do? Could I end up on the blacklist for this?”

While Cyril was contemplating a solution, he caught sight of Bark smirking at the disgraceful display. An idea–a far–fetched but faintly possible one–flashed through his

mind. “If I remember correctly, Katrina is supposed to take part in Bark’s concert. Could it be that Bark invited her tonight?”

Despite its plausibility, Jonathan doubted that theory and shook his head. Yet, with no other likely reasons apparent, they stuck with it for the moment. It wasn’t the time for speculation

anyway. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Cyril moved forward immediately and managed to pull the two women apart from their tussle, with Jonathan reluctantly assisting, wary of the disgrace.

Once the two were separated, Bonnie unleashed a tirade against Katrina. “Who do you are? All you do is cling to my brother. Do you think I haven’t noticed? I despised Sylvia because I thought she wedded my brother using dirty tricks. But you? You’re no better. Already engaged and still obsessing over my brother. I’ve never seen anyone as shameless as you. Showing up here tonight, with drugs, planning to trap my brother–you’re utterly disgraceful.”

Through Bonnie’s words, the situation became clear. Katrina felt her status slipping and

cooked up a plan to secure a lifeline by ensnaring Cyril. She had come prepared with drugs, but Bonnie caught her before she could act.

Furious and ready to leave, Bonnie had noticed Katrina sneaking around and decided to investigate, only to discover her plotting.
